My answer to "is there a god" is not just "I don't know", it's "I don't know what you are talking about".
If it's just an intelligent being in another reality that set this reality off, intentionally or otherwise, then I simply don't know. It's probably impossible to tell. No need to guess either way. I don't believe there is, and I don't believe there isn't. Weak atheism.
If it's the above plus [massive loads of spiritual supernatural drivel that doesn't mean anything] then I'm not available for comment. I don't understand what you even mean. But the more ridiculous mega-attributes you try and force down its throat, the more likely it's existing only in your imagination.
I intellectually respect deists more than religious theists, as they have been less duped. (This is probably an unfair comparison as it may well reflect different levels of indoctrination.) But they are still operating under faulty logic. I don't generally mind deists at all, as long as they don't keep going on about spiritual stuff all the time.
